Broken Should be 3.0.6. Go9 to Courier IMAP source.

Try the following source:, but no warranty:

Courier = famd (yay SGI). RedHat's (RHEL3, RHAS3) famd is demonstrably
broken, or I'm a turd. So install the SGI famd source (as I did).
www.sgi.com and search for linux or open source.

See if that helps ;)
